@kev just wing it...

I've said for years Matt Wright should be tried at 10, but we missed that boat too.

I’ve officially given up trying to work out some of these selection decisions. I guess we just roll with it and see what happens.

Either way, I hope we lift tomorrow and put that performance in that we are capable of. Haven’t seen anything from us since the Taranaki game.

taniwharugby

so we stumble into the top 4, hopefully with that off our minds, the guys can go out and win tomorrow and show they deserve to be in the top 4 and if results go our way, sneak into 3rd.

Bovidae

Both teams have plenty to play for.

taniwharugby

@Bovidae you guys in similar position arent you in that you need other results to push up a spot?

Bovidae

@taniwharugby We need one more point than Ta$man to get a home SF. So really 5 pts.

taniwharugby

@Bovidae well if you win (as you likely will) it will be with a BP.

Hopefully though, our boys use thier smarts and can cut loose, looking like weather will play its part tomorrow

I tipped Waikato to thrash Northland but not so sure looking at the Waikato team. Idk isn't Northland always a weird one against Waikato?

taniwharugby

Think 2017 was the coldest I have ever been at Okara Park, most people left at half time when things weren't looking great, but I stuck around and reaped the rewards.

@taniwharugby Northland supporters are incredibly patient.

taniwharugby

disappointing crowd.

taniwharugby

soft start

Yeetyaah

@taniwharugby right? Pretty shit.

taniwharugby

@Yeetyaah dont expect they will be sending another game to Kaikohe in a hurry!

Yeetyaah

Surely the corner. Waikato dominating.
